Example to copy portal content

PhilipHughes — Sat, 10 Jun 2017 07:40:19 GMT

trying to used the example listed in the site, there a few typo errors that obvious however I getting a traceback error

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "copy_to_mgq.py", line 398, in <module>
    target.content.create_folder(folder, user)
File "C:\Continuum\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\arcgis\gis.py", line 1665, in create_folder
    if self._portal.get_folder_id(owner_name, folder) is None:
File "C:\Continuum\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\arcgis\_impl\portalpy.py", line 2192, in get_folder_id
    if fldr['title'].upper() == folder_name.upper(): # Force both strings to upper case for comparison
AttributeError: 'dict' object has no attribute 'upper'

This is from the line "target.content.create_folder(folder, user)" am guessing this a problem in the esri code

Philip, we have fixed this error. It would be a while before the site is updated, meanwhile, you can check out the updated sample on github arcgis-python-api/clone_portal_users_groups_and_content.ipynb at dev · Esri/arcgis-python-api · GitHub

Thank you, got the script, now running, next problem is

when copying item

target_item = target.content.add(item_properties, data_file, thumbnail_file,
metadata_file, source_item.owner, folder_name)

Getting occasional error

HTTP error 413: Request Entity Too Large

Is this fixed or is there a constant that can be set.

What's the json being passed in the text parameter. You can check its validity using the tool at https://jsonformatter.curiousconcept.com/

This is the problem, I am trying to run one of the ESRI samples that copies from one portal to another. I will have to try and modify code to see if I can dump the data.
